The CBEFF Header specified in Table 14 and its notes has been established by NIST as Patron Format "PIV". This format has been established as a formal Patron Format per the provisions of [CBEFF, 6.2]. It adds definitive data types and the FASC-N field mandated by [FIPS] to a subset of the fields given in Patron Format A [CBEFF, Annex A]. It exists independently of Patron Format A. All fields of the format are mandatory.
